Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 443 - 39 Dispute_4
Chapter 443: Chapter 39 Dispute_4
Relying on those half-baked young tool refiners, it was hard to bring out the full potential of Zhenling Palace in a short time.
If it weren’t for the many rare resources left in Zhenling Palace, which are still supporting them now, the morale of the Xuli Sect would probably have begun to falter.
But even so, there are quite a few people within the sect who have their doubts.
They felt that they shouldn’t have acted on Zhenling Palace so early. Not only did the sect suffer heavy losses, with many young disciples dying, but the sect’s income also fell off a cliff.
As the Sect Master, Lin Boyue also felt tremendous pressure.
After being silent for a while, however, a stern look slowly appeared in Lin Boyue’s eyes:
“Of course we can’t just sit and wait for death!”
“The situation in Huifeng Valley isn’t much better than ours, if they can thrive using spirit chicken essence, so can we!”
Zhuang Yi couldn’t help raising doubts:
“But we don’t have spirit chickens, and we don’t have a spiritual cook who can refine the spirit chicken essence!”
“We don’t have them, but Huifeng Valley does. Shen Fu is probably in their hands, otherwise, they couldn’t have produced so much all of a sudden.”
Lin Boyue’s eyes flickered: “Who is currently in charge of Huifeng Valley at Yanqiao Pass?”
“It’s Yan Qing.”
Zhuang Yi immediately answered.
The mention of the other party’s name filled his eyes with resentment. He couldn’t help but think of the unpleasant experience at Yanqiao Pass.
“Yan Qing… has he been continuously at Yanqiao Pass? Has he ever left?”
Lin Boyue suddenly asked.
“This…”
Zhuang Yi couldn’t help but frown, pondering carefully: “I did not see him yesterday.”
“Is the spirit chicken essence still sold?”
“Always on sale, but yesterday did not seem to sell a lot… Brother, do you mean Yan Qing might have gone back to Huifeng Valley to get the spirit chicken essence?”
Zhuang Yi quickly reacted.
Lin Boyue squinted his eyes, nodded slightly, and pondered:
“We don’t have to guess here, this Shen Fu, we must catch him and keep him with us. You need to arrange more manpower outside the teleportation array of Huifeng Valley. Next time Yan Qing comes back from Huifeng Valley, we will intercept him at Yanqiao Pass and capture him directly.”
“Capture Yan Qing?”
Zhuang Yi’s eyes widened immediately.
“Yes, capture Yan Qing and exchange him for Shen Fu with Zhu Rong.”
“I don’t believe Zhu Rong won’t agree. He seems generous and straightforward on the surface, but in reality, he is very calculating. He cannot miscalculate this.”
“Without Yan Qing, there will only be Zhu Rong with the golden core left in Huifeng Valley, he won’t last long!”
A ruthless look flashed in Lin Boyue’s eyes.
After the shock, Zhuang Yi was overjoyed.
“Great! Rest assured, Brother, I will make the arrangements!”
Lin Boyue nodded:
“Hmm, I will also join you then.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yi was even more excited:
“With Brother present, there is absolutely no way Yan Qing can escape!”
However, Lin Boyue couldn’t help but knit his brows:
“Little brother, don’t lose sight of the real issue! Our plan to seize Shen Fu is only a temporary measure to overcome the current difficulties. To achieve our ultimate goal, we must find potential tool refining talents among the cultivators of the Zhenling Palace. Only in this way can the Xuli Sect truly get out of the current predicament.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yi immediately looked embarrassed:
“Yes, Zhuang Yi understands.”
…
Ten days later.
Yan Qing visited them again.
The moment he saw Wang Ba, he was elated, unable to contain his joy:
“Shen, my friend, no, my co-cultivator Shen, this spirit chicken essence of yours is truly a miracle! Now, among all the businesses in Yanqiao Pass, ours is the most prosperous!”
Wang Ba was a bit curious upon hearing this. After all, with just a little over a hundred spirit chicken essences, how good could the business be?
But Yan Qing didn’t hide anything, he boasted:
“We took the spirit chicken essence from you and sold it at the same price. But people can only buy it if they have spent a certain amount of spirit stone on other items in our store. Alternatively, they can also buy it by spending a few dozen extra middle grade spirit stones, but most people choose the former. After all, the one-time magic tools in our store are very cost-effective and very usable.”
“Wang Ba, can you guess how much we earned from the spirit chicken essence in our store this past month?”
Before Wang Ba could comment.
Yan Qing was unable to contain his pride and said:
“After deducting all costs and expenses, we made a net profit of one hundred upper grade spirit stones!”
Actually, they made over three hundred. freewebnøvel.coɱ
But Yan Qing was afraid that Wang Ba would be envious, so he reported a lower amount.
Wang Ba said: “Uh… that’s a lot indeed!”
Then he took out the results of the past ten days.
210 spirit chicken essences.
“Uh…”
Seeing so many spirit chicken essences, Yan Qing was silent for a moment.
Wang Ba couldn’t help feeling doubtful:
“What’s wrong?”
A flush of embarrassment crept up on Yan Qing’s face: “I… I am a few dozen upper-grade spirit stones short.”
He took out 260 upper-grade spirit stones and said in a helpless tone,
“I thought I would repay you the 70 spirit stones I owed you and then add another 170. I even took an extra 20 just in case…”
What he did not expect was that Wang Ba would suddenly bring out 210 portions.
Even though there’s a shortage of 20 stones, he boasted about making a lot of spirit stones one moment and was short of 20 the next, it’s really embarrassing.
He really wanted to bring more, but the store needed to retain a sum of money for turnover, so he couldn’t possibly take it all away.
Wang Ba could understand. After all, doing business requires capital. There are always difficulties in capital turnover.
“No worries, you can make up for it next time.”
Wang Ba generously proposed.
Yan Qing was immediately flushed with embarrassment, but then he seemed to remember something, and a look of delight appeared on his face:
“Oh right, Shen, Yanqiao Pass is going to have a Changyi Society gathering in a couple of days. There’s said to be a few Class III treasures from a Beast Control sect in Xu State. Moreover, it’s said that Prince Gao will also personally come to Yanqiao Pass. Do you want to check it out?”
“Oh?”
Hearing this news, Wang Ba was immediately interested.
The other things didn’t matter much, but if there were any Spirit Beast Collars for sale, it was something he could not afford to miss.
With this in mind, he immediately agreed.
However, before leaving with Yan Qing, he hesitated, then collected all the spirit chickens, and also informed Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng immediately stopped cultivating and followed behind Wang Ba.
Only then did Wang Ba felt much more relieved.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the Huifeng Valley and stepped onto the teleportation array.
Meanwhile.
Outside Yanqiao Pass.
Not far from the Huifeng Valley teleportation array.
Lin Boyue, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.
A fierce light flashed in his eyes:
“I’ve finally waited for you… Yan Qing!”
